day 15
do you believe in regrets?
This is a very good question! I have wondered countless times about how my life would be or how I would be if I had chosen to do things differently. I imagine scenarios on which I am still with an old boyfriend or I had studied harder for that stupid exam or I hadn't passed out in that bathroom...but then I fall asleep and forget what happened next on that alternative reality...
You see the thing is for me thinking about stuff like that is something like counting seeps...I only do it because I can't fall asleep easily. Where we are at and who/what we are can't change whether we have regrets or not. So, there isn't really a point, is there? Plus I don't have any regrets because if I hadn't done the things I've done I wouldn't have become the person I am today. I always reflect upon my actions and I believe that by doing so I become a better and more equipped person, so that given I find myself in a similar situation I will act more wisely.
And to be honest...that boyfriend wasn't good for me, studying for that exam wasn't nearly as fascinating as playing my guitar all day and if I hadn't passed out people would never have forgiven me for the things I said earlier that night! ( I mean, you can find the positive in almost anything)
do you have any terrible ones?
I have done some pretty stupid and messed up things in my life but I only have one regret and it is for something that I've been told I had no control over. I have thought about it through millions of different angles and I have found there isn't one single thing I could have done or said to stop it effectively and I guess that's my regret...that it had to happen.
